- Based on the results of the preliminary tests, the test item solutions were prepared from the
test item with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to obtain the dosing solutions (see: Table 1).
For the selected concentration range, the absent cytotoxicity and the noticed solubility
properties of the test item were taken into consideration, based on the recommendations in
OECD 471 guideline [6]. The recommended maximum test concentration of 5 mg/plate was
chosen as highest test item concentration for planned experiments.

Frozen stock cultures were prepared from the disc cultures. The identification codes, arrival
date and expiry dates of the actual applied stock cultures are summarized in Table 3. - Rationale for test conditions:
- Based on the results of the preliminary tests, the test item solutions were prepared from the
test item with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to obtain the dosing solutions (see: Table 1).
For the selected concentration range, the absent cytotoxicity and the noticed solubility
properties of the test item were taken into consideration, based on the recommendations in
OECD 471 guideline [6]. The recommended maximum test concentration of 5 mg/plate was
chosen as highest test item concentration for planned experiments.

±S9: 5000, 1600, 500, 160, 50 and 16 µg/plate.
As indicated in section 6.1.2, at the chosen top concentrations no precipitate was expected
on the minimal glucose agar plates.
The test solutions were freshly prepared at the beginning of the experiments. At the
preparation of the test item solutions any correction (multiplier) factor was not taken into

- The colony numbers on the untreated, vehicle control, positive control and the test plates
were determined (counted manually, evaluated by unaided eye), the mean values, standard
deviations and the mutation rates were calculated:
Mutation Rate =
Mean number of revertants at the test item (or control*) treatments
Mean number of revertants of vehicle control
* : untreated, vehicle or positive control
A result is considered positive if:
- a concentration-related increase in the number of revertants occurs and/or;
- a reproducible biologically relevant positive response for at least one of the concentration
groups occurs in at least one strain with or without metabolic activation.
An increase is considered biologically relevant if:
- in strain Salmonella typhimurium TA100 the number of reversions is at least twice as high
as the reversion rate of the vehicle control,
- in strain Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA1535, TA1537 and Escherichia coli WP2
uvrA the number of reversions is at least three times higher than the reversion rate of the
vehicle control.
According to the guidelines, the biological relevance of the results is the criterion for the
interpretation of results, a statistical evaluation of the results is not regarded as necessary.
Criteria for a Negative Response:
A test item is considered non-mutagenic if it produces neither a concentration-related
increase in the number of revertants nor a reproducible biologically relevant positive
response at any of the concentration groups, with or without metabolic activation. - Statistics:
- The colony numbers on the untreated, vehicle control, positive control and the test plates
were determined (counted manually, evaluated by unaided eye), the mean values, standard
deviations and the mutation rates were calculated:
Mutation Rate =
Mean number of revertants at the test item (or control*) treatments
Mean number of revertants of vehicle control
* : untreated, vehicle or positive control

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The reported data of this mutagenicity assay show (see Appendix I to III) that under the
experimental conditions applied, the test item induced gene mutations by base-pair
substitution in the genome of the strains of Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535
and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA. While the results of the main experiment confirmed well
the concentration range finding test results in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 strain, the
positive results obtained in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 and Escherichia coli WP2
uvrA strains were not confirmed with a subsequent experiment.
In conclusion, the test item Reaction products of 2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diol with 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane has unequivocal mutagenic activity on strains
carrying base-pair substitution, in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535 strains in
the absence and presence, in Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA, in the presence of exogenous
metabolic activation, under the test conditions used in this study. - Executive summary:
Purpose of the study:
The test item Reaction products of 2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diol with 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane was tested with regard to a potential mutagenic activity using the
Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay.
Bacterial strains, exogenous metabolic activation:
The main experiment was carried out using histidine-requiring auxotroph strains of
Salmonella typhimurium (Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537),
and the tryptophan-requiring auxotroph strain of Escherichia coli (Escherichia coli WP2
uvrA) in the presence and absence of a post mitochondrial supernatant (S9) prepared from
livers of Phenobarbital/β-naphthoflavone-induced rats.
Experimental phases:
The study included a preliminary solubility test, a preliminary concentration range finding
test (informatory toxicity test applying the plate incorporation method), and an initial
mutation test (plate incorporation test). Because of the unequivocal, positive mutagenicity
results of the initial mutation test, further testing for the final conclusion was considered not
necessary.
Vehicle, test item concentrations, rationale for concentration selection:
Based on the results of the solubility test and the concentration range finding test the test
item was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and the following concentrations of the
test item were prepared and investigated in the initial mutation test:
±S9: 5000, 1600, 500, 160, 50 and 16 µg/plate.
For the selected concentration range, the absent cytotoxicity, and the noticed solubility
properties of the test item were taken into consideration, based on the recommendations in
OECD 471 guideline [6].
At the preparation of the test item solutions any correction (multiplier) factor was not taken
into consideration, the concentrations were based on the final formulation as is.
Solubility, precipitation:
No precipitation of the test item was observed on the plates in the examined bacterial strains
at any examined concentration level (±S9) throughout the study.
Cytotoxicity results:
In the initial mutation test, no inhibitory effects of the test item on bacterial growth were
observed in the examined strains. All of the noticed lower revertant colony numbers (when
compared to the revertant colony numbers of the corresponding vehicle control) remained
within the range of the biological variability of the applied test system. Furthermore, the
background lawn development was not affected in any case.
Mutagenicity results:
The revertant colony numbers of vehicle control (dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)) plates with
and without S9 Mix demonstrated the characteristic mean numbers of spontaneous
revertants that were in line with the corresponding historical control data ranges.

The reference mutagen treatments (positive controls) showed the expected, biological
relevant increases (more than 3-fold increase) in induced revertant colonies and the number
of revertants fell in the corresponding historical control ranges, thereby meeting the criteria for
the positive control.
In the performed initial mutation test biologically relevant revertant colony number increases
were observed in revertant colony numbers of in case of Salmonella typhimurium TA100,
TA1535 strains in the absence and presence of exogenous metabolic activation (±S9);
furthermore, in Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA in the presence of metabolic activation (+S9).
In these strains the obtained revertant colony number increases showed clear concentration
dependency.
The results of the main experiment confirmed well the concentration range finding test
results in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 strain.
Conclusion:
The reported data of this mutagenicity assay show (see Appendix I to III) that under the
experimental conditions applied, the test item induced gene mutations by base-pair
substitution in the genome of the strains of Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535
and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA. While the results of the main experiment confirmed well
the concentration range finding test results in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 strain, the
positive results obtained in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 and Escherichia coli WP2
uvrA strains were not confirmed with a subsequent experiment.
In conclusion, the test item Reaction products of 2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diol with 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane has unequivocal mutagenic activity on strains
carrying base-pair substitution, in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535 strains in
the absence and presence, in Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA, in the presence of exogenous
metabolic activation, under the test conditions used in this study.
